I don't know if it's a rule across the board for all bowling leagues everywhere but I would think it is because I don't think my little league would impose such a weird rule. You a bowler Kelly?
my scores, the shame is still with me. LOL Many in my family are,
and some are quite good. I have an uncle that bowled a perfect
game once in league play, I'm not sure how common that is
since I don't follow the sport. He showed me the artical in the local
paper, more than once. 🙂

I wish I could bowl leftie good. I tried but I could not get my steps down right and I kept smashing my left ankle.
want to go into public and try while bowling. It is after all a matter of
timing nothing else. Get a couple of people who want to do it too, and
treat is line dancing until you get it down. 🙂

Originally posted by KellyJayA 300 game is nothing to sneeze at. It's 12 strikes in a row and maybe a couple might be lucky but the majority are not. My high game is 285. Too bad the money in professional bowling is nowhere near the money in pro golf.

As much as I enjoy it, I have a hard time calling it a "sport" myself. More like a game to me. I think it's about as much as a sport as poker is 😉
Originally posted by KellyJaygood idea. I don't know if I will do it because I was really being facetious about the wanting to bowl leftie thing although it would be fun to do.

I think phlabby should start a thread on fashion sense, and concentrate mainly on this.
Dryer's create a vortex when they spin and the the heat induces a temporal wormhole. It's very small and so only small single items can travel through it in one go. This explains why only one sock dissappears, and yet pants and shirts always remain.

Man I bet the next thing you are going to tell me is there isn't an Easter Bunny, right?
Originally posted by Joe FistPerhaps these elves you speak of live on the other side of the wormhole and just use it to gain access to your socks. This is why there is no evidence of a breakin and why you're really not crazy for believing in elves.

Originally posted by Joe FistI believe it's an ABC and WIBC rule. I think it came about because of the money involved in some fast leagues and sanctioned tournaments. For example: you're a 190 average right handed bowler and spend the year bowling left handed and establish an average of 120. But everytime you enter a handicap tournament you bowl right handed and pick up a sizeable check. Of course, in scratch leagues and tournaments it wouldn't matter, but the rule applies anyway.
